Students then take the samples to their school and test them for levels of bacteria. Usually, samples closer to the border have higher levels of bacteria, Hill said.‎ ‎“Water quality is usually the worst at the southern end and it increasingly gets better,” he said.‎ Hill collects the samples on Thursdays so that students can publish the results on the Surfrider Foundation’s website in time for the weekend. The Surfrider Foundation has give Mar Vista lab equipment and promote the students’ results on its site.‎ Most of Hill’s students grew up in Imperial Beach. Many have gotten sick from the water or know someone who has.‎ Cameron Bell, 17, who is currently applying to college, wants to pursue a STEM career. He appreciates the fact the he can get lab experience at school. “Our research really impacts our community because it’s keeping people safe,” he said.‎ On a recent Thursday morning, Anthony Gass, 15, collected some samples.

Being hard of hearing has been difficult, but I’ve never lived in a state of self-hating sorrow.‎ Imagine being able to shut out all sounds as you lay your head down to sleep by simply rolling over onto one side. That’s my reality when I sleep on my “good ear”, and it even makes me feel like a superhero sometimes.‎ People call my deaf side my “bad ear”, but when I wear my hearing aid, I have access to a range of features（特征）that some other deaf people don’t.‎ In cinemas, for example, with one click of a button I can enjoy a whole film as though it were whispered to me from the mouths of the actors.‎ Having a hearing aid hasn't always felt good, however.‎ On the first day I got my aid, when I was 8, I took it to school for show-and-tell. As I explained how it worked to my classmates, a boy yelled out, “Aren’t those for ‎ old men?”‎ At that moment, I felt different. It took a long time for me to get over that sense of being so unlike my peers（同龄人）.‎ But it’s not just school kids who can make us deaf and hard-of-hearing people feel like burdens（负担）.‎ Every video on social media that lacks subtitles, for example, means an entire community of deaf people is unable to enjoy it.‎ Completely deaf people are excluded from enjoying many movies too, as subtitles in cinemas are almost impossible to find.‎ And with hearing aids costing around $2,500 each, it can be hard for many people to afford to be able to listen to the things that others take for granted.‎ As for me, I can listen to music, enjoy films, and catch conversations – I’m lucky.‎ I’m deaf, but I can still hear everything. I’ve been blessed with wonderful life experiences.‎ ‎28. The author once feel different from his peers because __________.‎ ‎ A. He can’t hear anything ‎ B. He was laughed at by his classmates ‎ C. He couldn’t enjoy without subtitles ‎ D. He could shut out all sounds when sleeping on his “good ear”‎ ‎29. Deaf people may have the following burdens EXCEPT _________.‎ ‎ A. being unable to afford hearing aids.‎ ‎ B. being unable to enjoy videos without subtitles ‎ C. being embarrassed in front of their peers ‎ D. being blessed with wonderful experiences ‎30. What does the underline phrase “are excluded from” probably mean?‎ ‎ A. are prevented from B. are limited to C. are separated from D. are reduced to ‎31. What is the author’s attitude toward his hearing difficulty?‎ ‎ A. It was a tough reality and caused him a lot of trouble.‎ ‎ B. It was a time of great sorrow and made him feel sad.‎ ‎ C. It gave him a chance to experience something special.‎ ‎ D. It helped him to live in his own world without sound.‎ D At some point in life, many people suffer a mental problem. While most people get over it, for others it doesn’t go away easily.‎ The World Health Organization (WHO) says that about 20 percent of children and teenagers across the globe suffer from mental illness. It’s thought that the number of children and teenagers with mental illness around the world will increase by half by 2020. It will become one of the main cause of disease, disabilities and even death.‎ The reason for mental problems among young people may be the increasing pressure in life. Study and relationships have always caused huge stresses for school children. For instance, they experience school bullying（欺凌）and academic pressure.‎ In China, the picture isn’t bright, either. About 30 million Chinese children and teenagers under the age of 17, or 10 percent of children and teenagers in China, have a mental health challenge, reported China Daily.‎ Also, according to China Daily, Chinese people don’t seek help with their mental problems. They fear that others will think less of them if they admit that they are in trouble. Many Chinese people are ashamed of their mental problems and mental illness is taboo（禁忌）in any Chinese families.‎ In the UK, over three-quarters of young people believe their mental health problems have a social shame and a quarter of young UK people wouldn’t ask for help if they developed a mental problem.‎ Young people who don’t seek help for their condition may be creating problems for themselves in the future. If you feel something is wrong within you – seek help.‎ Feeling down? Here are three things to try if you feel low.‎ ‎●Go to a psychology teacher. The teacher will listen to you and offer help – for free!‎ ‎●Call 800-810-1100. It’s the number of a hotline run by the Mental Health ‎ Research and Prevention‎ ‎Center. The line is open 24 hours a day.‎ ‎● Tell your parents and visit the hospital if the situation gets out of control.‎ ‎32. According to the WHO, about ________ of children and teenagers worldwide experience mental illness.‎ ‎ A. 10 percent B. one fifth C. 30 percent D. three quarters ‎33. Chinese people don’t ask for help with their mental health probably because ___________.‎ ‎ A. they think less of their mental problems ‎ B. they fear that they may get into trouble ‎ C. they are ashamed to admit having mental problems ‎ D. they are unwilling to avoid their mental illness ‎34.‎‎ ‎School‎ children with mental health should try the following three things EXCEPT________.‎ ‎ A. consulting their teacher B. calling a hotline for advice ‎ C. communicating with their parents D. hiding their mental illness from others ‎35. What is the purpose in writing this article?‎ ‎ A. To analyze the major causes of young people’s mental illness.‎ ‎ B. To describe the current situation of young people’s mental health.‎ ‎ C. To encourage young people to deal with their mental problems properly.‎ ‎ D. To introduce mental problems to Chinese young people.‎ 第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)‎ ‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。选项中两项多余选项。‎ The Center for Humane Technology is made up of people who created many popular apps（软件）for big tech companies like Google, Facebook and Twitter. 36 ‎ The center has started a movement called the Truth About Tech. Its purpose is to teach students, parents and teachers about the dangers of spending too much time on smart phones and computers.‎ According to studies on kids and technology, more than 95 per cent of primary school children spend time every day using a computer, or smart phone. About 78 per cent of teenagers check their phones every hour. 37 They are afraid that they may miss an important call or message during night.‎ ‎ 38 For example, spending too much time online can cause people to put on weight and also influence how they feel. Many people become worried or nervous because they feel they aren’t having as much fun as their friends are. 39 They may also find it harder to make friends in real life.‎ ‎ 40 They say that when big tech companies are designing tech tools for kids, they should think about what they would want for their own children.‎ A.
